What is Oncor?

Oncor is not an electric retailer like Austin Energy or Pedernales Electric Cooperative. Instead, they’re the folks that build, own and maintain the equipment used for electricity transportation (e.g. powerlines). Since Texas has a deregulated electricity market, you might be an Oncor customer and not even know it!

To give you some idea of eligibility requirements and program incentives, we’ve included the rebate information from the most recent round.
